How does this work?

Our sunrise and sunset times are calculated algorithmnically, using PHP, Ajax and JQuery. PHP has a built in function (date_sunrise() and date_sunset()) that returns the time of sunrise and sunset for any given day and location, and is calculated based on the latitude/longitude coordinates.

The sunrise and sunset syntax for the PHP function is as follows:

date_sunrise(timestamp,format,latitude,longitude,zenith,gmtoffset);
